[QUOTE="ilovemykids, post: 136006, member: 4833"] He was diagnosed by a neuropsychologist almost a year ago. He has been on an IEP since he was 3y 10m. He started in an Early childhood classroom but they thought it wasn't meeting his needs because he was way more advanced than the other kids. He tried Concerta b4 Stratera and that was the most horrible drug ever (dbl. blind placebo trial)...I knew when he was on it because it made everything 10x worse. The neuropsychologist sent us to a pediatrician doctor for medications...She doesn't listen so talked to his reg. doctor (wants to put him on depakote), called a different hospitol referred us to another doctor...found out when we got there that he is another pediatrition but he referred us to a behavioral health practice at another hospitol...(waiting for the app't) and a clinic that deals specifically with EBD in the Twin Cities (8month waiting list). He is great at school and at home when he is on....he's like a light switch...either really great or really bad...not much gray. We also have looked into S I disfunction but it didn't really fit him. He gets worse every winter...but that doesn't mean he doesn't have good days.... He excels in school and gets along well with others (when he's "on")....he is such a loving, kind kid. His teachers just love him....however when he's in a rage he isn't there....it's like he's possessed. I was diagnosed in HS with ADHD (not on medications-don't need them although my mother would say I do) No other problems. I don't understand the lingo in here....could you tell me what they mean...ex. difficult child? so I can write my sig. [/QUOTE]
